Can Marijuana Be Taken While On Nitrofurantoin Mono-MCR?

Hello,


I have been taking Nitrofurantoin Mono-MCR 100 mg for 6 days (2 a day) to cure UTI. I have one more to take tonight and 2 left just for tomorrow and I am done.

Is it possible for me to smoke marijuana today? Would it affect me? Or would it not affect me since I'm already feeling better and one more day of treatment?
